Because in Victorian England, probably where this ridiculous idea came from, the puddle was probably full of mud, horse shit, and other road grime. If she walks fast after he puts his coat down, the worst she'll get is wet shoes and not shoes covered in mud, shit, and grime.

Now, I don't understand why anyone would think it's better to have that on his coat than on her shoes. You'd think shoes would be easier to clean than a coat.

just over the weekend i found an old encyclopaedia someone threw out that mentioned this thing. but rather than being some common practise, it was something that apparently sir walter raleigh did for the queen, ruining his expensive coat. true or not, he became one of the queens favourites and they were best buddies and he got heaps of cool shit and could do whatever he wanted

"Sir Walter Raleigh, step forward. For services rendered to the Crown and to Her Majesty the Queen, you are hereby awarded 3 square feet of mediocre pastureland on the Isle of Orkney, the title of sub-Sir of Orkney, and one turnip. You may withdraw."

Except for the fact that the queen fell for him and her love was not reciprocated, so walter raleigh actually had quite a tough time dealing with that jealousy and resentment from her. It caused the queen to decide she was unlovable and would therefore rule as a cold-hearted tyrant.

We were talking about kinks a bit, and my friend was told me a story of being in a bar in NYC and there was a guy rolled up in a rug, with a note pinned to it saying please step here. With a smiley face. Apparently this guy did this at this bar frequently.

I mentioned that I could see how someone would like this more than I could see some of the other kinks. After all, the lead apron they put on you at the dentist feels really nice. She acted as though that were extremely strange, she had never heard of such a thing being pleasurable. I tried to explain that it isn't sexual, just comfy, but that I could see how it could be expanded. So then our other friend, call her J, comes back from the bathroom and my friend starts to make fun of me about this - but as soon as she mentions the lead apron J just goes yeah! isn't it such a great feeling?

Ive been to a bar where carpet dude was. It was pretty bizarre. Bar was crowded and he placed himself right next to it, so girls in heels and stuff would nonchalantly stand on top of him ordering drinks and what not. No body seemed overly concerned with the whole thing. At the end of the night he just unrolled himself and walked out quietly. I miss nyc.

I once had to carry my gf across a slow, low flowing river in the mountains. We were backpacking. Her foot was slightly injured and bandaged. The water was maybe 3 feet deep, and about 100 feet wide. Rather than have her wet the bandaged foot (and have to dry, then re-wrap it), I told her I would just carry her across. You could cut the romance in the air with a knife. I wooed her hardcore.

Well see, that's awesome and I imagine that each upvote that you got was from a girl swooning. None of these girls, however, appeared injured or even challenged in the slightest by attempting to cross this.

I don't know for whom I have the least respect -- the girl walking on him for lowering her dignity so far as to walk on another human, or the simpering white knight for even jokingly debasing himself in such a manner.

This reminds me of the time a bunch of my friends and I were camping and found a beautiful waterfall and stream deep in the woods. My friend and I spent the better part of the day building a small dam in the creek just for fun. Right at its completion a bunch of models in heels and shit come strolling through the woods and a few photographers to do a photo shot and they completely ruined the dam thinking that it was a bridge. One of them even commented on how crappy that little bridge was.

I've been wondering, what if this guy is just trying to be funny or something? I know people who would do such a thing out of the blue just to see the reactions of others when he makes a human bridge across an almost nonexistent creek. Everybody's treating this so seriously, it's posted in r/funny for a reason

Good I'm sick of these dumb sluts friendzoning me even though I'm such a nice guy! What can I be doing wrong?!?! I have a beautiful neckbeard and I am an incredibly intelligent atheist! Fuck every woman ever.

This man is a genius. This is the perfect opportunity to exhibit his bravery, humbleness, and brute upper body strength by doing pushups while she crosses. He's pretty much guaranteed an opportunity to procreate, possibly more than once.

Women do not keep points for the shit that men do. We don't write down, "Jimmy opened the door for me today. That's worth 1 point. Only 49 more points until I let him fuck me!"

So, in this situation, we wouldn't say, hm...this guy was a bridge for me. That's 20 points. Maybe worth a hand job.

You are in the "friend zone" because we like your personality, but we aren't attracted to you. We want to be friends with you, and no amount of shit you do will add up to anything sexual. So don't even bother.

Also, you might be in the friend zone because rather than say to a girl, hey, I'm into you, you make a mother fucking bridge out of yourself.

There isn't a single comment in this thread that suggests this is all just for fun. Of course she could have stepped over that herself. The guy probably just wanted to see if he could do it, or thought it would make a funny picture. For fuck's sake, Reddit, not everything is about sex.

Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
